DIMENSIONS: D. 11", W. 59", H. 48.8" MIGUEL MILA', born in Barcelona in 1931, began his professional practice in 1950 in the architecture firm of his brother Alfonso Mila' and Federico Correa. Eight years later, he created his own design studio and since then he has based his career in Catalan and Spanish design. He has followed Bauhaus rationalism, though he has based his aesthetics of his objects in the simplification of shapes and elements, in search for maximum functionality. His work has been the subject of several design exhibitions, as part of the "Springtime of Disseny" at Maribor (1995) in the 2004 Design Year at the Palau Robert in 2007 in the exhibition entitled "The knowledge of Living" at the Blaquerna Institute of Madrid. Furthermore, in 2007, the FAd gave him a prize for his carer with the acknowledgement of the "Cadena de Mestres". He was a teacher at the ELISAVA school and the EIWA school in Barcelona from 1960 till 1980. Since 1960 he has been a founding member of the ADI FAD. Prizes won by Miguel Mila': National prize of industrial design (1987), Croce di Sant Jordi della Generalitat de Catalunya (1993), Delta de Oro (1961, '63, '64, '65, '68, '75, '77), Delta de Oro (speciale 1986), Award for good industrial design (1994) and Compasso d'Oro (2008). DESSIE' company's mission is putting a contemporary spin on the old tradition of cabinet-making, in order to offer pieces of furniture ready to get people excited and to satisfy aesthetic and functional values of the contemporary way of living. Dessie' was started during 1990s and now proposes a collection of pieces of furniture inviting to discover a sophisticated and elegant design, an unique style where different influences merge, and to re-create a simple and refined design atmosphere for unconventional people who are freely looking for essential and high quality pieces. A collection, including tables, small tables, writing desks, console tables, bedside tables, chairs, bookcases, dressers, cabinets, cupboards, upholstered pieces of furniture and lamps, which was created having in mind an essential style and a careful attention to recent trends. Harmony of forms and care for high quality and rational design, attentively studying any detail, are some of key features of production by Dessie', which has been always reworking the legacy from the tradition by means of a strongly contemporary design language. The aim is to create a forward-looking style which anyway doesn't lose the value of the past as a main feature, in order to give any setting an original charme, indifferent to passing fads. Hence here's a formal language which uninterruptedly takes care of details and precious finishes, while experimenting expressive capabilities of the best materials: precious woods, steel, leather, natural fibers, etc. Flexibility and possibility of customizing any piece in order to offer a "tailor-made" production is one of key design criteria followed by Dessie'. Dessie' established a close cooperation with some famous international designers, like the Catalan Jaime Tresserra, who designed "Tecnica" collection. Besides its own production, Dessie' has been taking the assignment of selecting products by some Spanish companies (Andreu World, Carpyen, Dae, Indecasa, Mobles 114, Punt Mobles and Tresserra) for many years, creating an unique and refined collection featuring bookcases, sofas, lamps, wall lights, chairs, armchairs, rugs, outdoor pieces of furniture, etc.
